Bloomsburg University signs memorandum of understanding with Milton Hershey School

HERSHEY — Bloomsburg University (BU) and the Milton Hershey School (MHS) have signed a memorandum of understanding that will provide focused and sustained support to low-income, first-generation college students from MHS so they can persist and graduate with a degree.

As part of the memorandum, the admissions team at BU will work with MHS to develop and accommodate MHS visits, open houses or weekend recruitment events, designed to invite MHS students to explore the many opportunities BU has to offer. BU will waive the $35 application fee for any student from Milton Hershey applying to the university as a full-time, degree-seeking student. There are currently 20 MHS graduates attending BU with 11 more accepted for the Fall 2020 semester.  

“We’re excited to partner with the Milton Hershey School to provide opportunities for its students to matriculate to Bloomsburg University,” said BU President Bashar W. Hanna. “This program helps BU fulfill its mission of educating the residents of the Commonwealth, and it allows us the opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of these hard-working first-generation students. As a ‘first-gen’ myself, I know firsthand the value of a college degree and its extraordinary impact on the student, his or her family, and their future.”

“Many MHS graduates are first-generation college students from low-income backgrounds. Bloomsburg University has measures in place so they can achieve their goals in the classroom and in life,” said Milton Hershey School Vice President of Graduate Programs for Success Tanya Baynham. “This partnership ensures that supports are available to help students ultimately persist through the academic, social, and financial challenges that they may face on their postsecondary journey.”

BU offers the chance for MHS alumni to participate in its Jump Start Program, an intensive two-week session focuses on college readiness and provides the opportunity to get acclimated to the Bloomsburg University Community. Getting a great start as a first-year student helps to ensure they will have the skills needed to be academically and socially engaged in the community, to understand the resources available to keep them focused on graduating in four years. Enrollment in Jump Start is free.  Students in the Jump Start Program will be transitioned into the Emerging Scholars Program at the beginning of the Fall Semester or the student’s first semester at Bloomsburg University.

The Emerging Scholars Program (ESP) is a comprehensive academic support program targeting first-generation students BU students who are demonstrating risk factors that will increase the likelihood of not completing a four-year college degree. ESP aims to cultivate core strengths in areas of academic self-confidence, community engagement, life skills and self-advocacy.

For its part, the Milton Hershey School will support the recruitment of MHS students to Bloomsburg University; provide opportunities for BU representatives to meet with MHS students; both potential applicants and those who have applied; assist with the design of programming and implementation of success programs when possible; and include BU information in published (digital and print) media related to guidebooks, catalogs, etc.

Milton Hershey School is a cost-free, private school for boys and girls located in Hershey. Milton and Catherine Hershey founded the school in 1909 with money they earned from the chocolate company. It now serves as a home away from home for more than 2,100 students each year.

My favorite little fourth-grader. Darrien Gibson has been through more than most at her age. A true orphan at age 7 but she never lets life get her down for too long. She is teaching me a lot about life, love and joy. Merry Christmas, 🎁 Babygirl! Keep shining! #miltonhersheyschool @miltonhersheyschool #darriengibson #babycousin #amazing #love #orphans #milts #deanna #darrien #afaiththatmovesmountains #thehousethatchocolatebuilt #christmasofinstagram #holidayfun #fireside #mentor #snuggles #family #photography #smiles #facebook @hersheys #chocolate #pointsetta #fireplace #fireplacedecor #christmastree (at Harrisburg Christian Performing Arts Center/HCPAC) https://www.instagram.com/p/BreUmnaDqp1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1kh0ss175524r

Happy Birthday to my daughter Luna. Even though we don’t share the same blood I loved you and STILL do for more than 9 years long. I raised you as if you were my own because YOU ARE MY OWN. One more year and you’re a teenager. I love you my little monkey. #SincerelyVicious #MakeMovesHustleHardLiveLife #May8th #Luna #MyMonkey #MHS #MiltonHersheySchool

The first day of the rest of your life. I'm so happy you we're given the chance of all chances to have a shot at such a monumental school and you succeeded. There are so many great things that lay ahead of you, so many opportunities and they can all be had. It's all about "choices" and making the right ones and learning from the wrong ones. Surround yourself with success and you will succeed. Just remember... choices. Hard to believe this all started with a man making chocolate. Thank you Milton & Catherine Hershey. #miltonhersheyschool #madefromchocolate #hershey #choices #graduation #success #greatpeople #newlife #instagrad #happy #juststartingout (at Milton Hershey School)
